Big BangBigbang have been dubbed Norway’s Greatest Live Band, and have been a major force in the Norwegian music scene for over a decade.

During the past two years, the band has spent time focusing on the American market. Based in California, they have toured the country, playing intimate gigs and promoting their American debut From Acid to Zen, a compilation of songs from previously released albums.

The album was very well received and resulted in great reviews among others from Rolling Stone Magazine’s Editor David Fricke: It’s a shotgun buffet, like those early U.S. LPs by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones that combined album tracks and singles from unrelated sessions, and it succeeds the same way: like an instant greatest-hits record.

"Delicate but lush music recalls that of Tim Buckley, Nick Drake and other forward thinking songwriters". -Norwegian press

“Thomas Dybdahl writes songs that move in for extreme close-ups: his acoustic guitar, his breathy voice, his vows of love…the tempos are glacial and the instruments few and pristine, so that every gesture is exposed. Anything less than total grace would turn precious and cloying, but Mr. Dybdahl maintains his poise; each song has the delicate suspense of a drawn breath.” -The New York Times

Sarah NebelCalm lovely voice. Quite an unknown artist even in Norway (Can't even be found on YouTube). Actually this is a friend of a friend / band mate of mine. Check out the song Jasmin on her web page. To me she sounds like she has listened a lot to Sinead O'Commer.

GlueciferA band from Oslo. In my opinion Norway's best Rock Band. Too sad they split up. They were never really big, but they constantly toured around in europe in small and big clubs. They were big in Germany. Live is where this band really blossomed. They even got the nick name "Kings of Rock" from fans.

Kurt NilsenOh yeah... it's Norway's own hobbit. The winner of the first Norwegian Idol combetition. Later won the whole World Idol. Listen to his voice and you will understand why. (Don't forget to check the last YouTube with the Kiss cover.

RemylA friend of Inry and I, started a project in the 90´s. His focus at the time were smoking weed, hating Microsoft, making weird sounds and the Acorn Archimedes personal computer. I actually think maybe Heisenberg will like this.

Seigmen were one of the bigger rock bands in Norway. Their breakthrough was sung in norwegian, but they later switched to english. I think maybe I've been to 15-20 or so concerts with this band throughout the years the were active :)
